Individual Therapy

I work with individuals who are trying to figure out how to navigate stressful roles and challenging relationships. My clients tend to be high achievers at work or at home and come to me after white knuckling their issues for years - they often find themselves feeling alone but not knowing who to reach out to due to their positions at work or at home.

Because my clients are often leaders of some sort - executives, entertainers, doctors, lawyers, etc - they tend to feeling incredibly alone in the lives they lead and uncertain of who to turn to.

Whether you’re here because you are finding yourself overwhelmed and depressed or because you’ve got a big decision to make, I would be honored to work with you. Together, we can work to improve communication, building coping skills, thinking through challenging situations, and alleviate painful feelings like loneliness, anxiety or depression.

Couples Therapy

Perhaps, you’ve been wondering for awhile whether or not you should get support. Often, couples will resolve to see a therapist after a big argument, only to feel better the next day and kick the can down the lane a little further.

Whether you’re here because there was a big fight last night, you feel stuck in a gridlock around a major decision, or you’ve noticed yourself feeling lonely even when you’re in the same room with your partner- I would be so honored to work with you.

While I work with all types of couples, I specialize in working with dual income, high achieving couples who are splitting at the seams with stress. These couples often tend to be caregivers to children or their parents as well.

I help couples to figure out the core of the issue, figure out steps for moving forward, and offer tools so they can take action. As a therapist, I am direct, provide you specific feedback, and like to use humor as much as I use empathy to get us through.

When working with couples, I follow a specific process. To learn more about it click here.
